City needs to rock in park

South Shields Council has done a great job bringing bands to Bents Park on a Sunday.

They must be bringing thousands into the local economy and Sunderland is missing out on a great opportunity. Could they not bring bands to the large field in Barnes Park? There is ample parking facilities and it’s on a main road.

It would be great to see thousands of people there to watch bands like Slade or 10CC rocking on a Sunday.
